    What is it about the bad boys that women find so irresistible? Most women have a history of falling for a man who was mean to them, didn’t care enough about them and didn't treat them well. 
    And, if there is a good guy in the scene, the one-sided lover or a friendzoned guy, who they are usually repelled by, then they would definitely pick the toxic men and ignore the sweet guy who actually deserves them. 
    Why does it happen? There has to be a scientific explanation.

    Well, for the longest time, I too believed that it is a myth that women find jerks attractive but we all might be wrong. Bollywood movies too have certainly proved that it is not just a myth. 

    Women onscreen have always gone for the Grade-A assholes instead of a genuinely good guy. Let me show you the proof.
    © Yash Raj Films
    Here are 5 leading female characters who picked absolute jerks in the movie, proving that women do fall for the wrong guys all the time:

    1. Anjali (Kuch Kuch Hota Hai)
    © Dharma Productions
    Did Rahul even remember his BFF Anjali or thought of calling her ever in those 8-9 years? No. Aman on the other hand clearly was obsessed with her and was right for her in every way. 

    © Dharma Productions
    If it wasn’t for Tina's letters from above and Anjali 2.0’s efforts, I doubt Rahul would have even made any efforts to get Anjali. But guess who left the good guy at the altar to marry off her college sweetheart who was actually never sweet to her? Anjali!  

    2. Pooja (Mujhse Dosti Karoge)
    © Yash Raj Films
    In the entire movie, Raj was crushing over Tina, the bombshell, completely ignoring Pooja who was the one writing him letters. Still, Pooja is head over heels in love with him. 

    When Rohan enters the scene, Raj gets all jealousy and snarky and we think Pooja would now realise that he is no good for her with this dramatic change in attitude. 
    © Yash Raj Films
    However, the opposite happens. She ignores the nice and chivalrous Rohan and runs back to Raj. What is this behaviour, Pooja? 

    3. Taani (Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi)
    © Yash Raj Films
    Taani is in a love triangle with the same guy who is her husband and her boyfriend, and she still somehow falls for the chhapri version of him. 

    She meets Raj Kapoor (why are all Rajs jerks?) who flirts with her when she tells him not to, dresses horribly and has no regard for the fact that she’s married. 
    © Yash Raj Films
    Surinder Sahni, her husband, is a humble, respectful man who is so much in love with his wife that he basically watches her making plans of eloping with his alternate personality and doesn’t flinch. Taani deserved none of them, TBH.

    4. Meera (Love Aaj Kal)
    © Eros International
    Meera and Jai Vardhan break up mutually and clearly cannot move on (staying friends with an ex is never a good idea, guys). 

    However, Jai is a commitment-phobic who isn’t sure till the end what he wants, leaves the dream job he was obsessing over and is sad to see his ex happy with her boss. 
    © Eros International
    He even blames her at her wedding for not forcing him to marry her. What even? Nevertheless, Meera ends her marriage for this douchebag while he takes forever to realise he wants her. 

    5. Pooja & Nisha (Dil To Pagal Hai)
    © Yash Raj Films
    Another classic jerk is Rahul, who is rude, short-tempered and basically, a manchild who doesn’t deserve Pooja or Nisha. What do they see in him? 

    He walks into Nisha’s room while she’s changing, stalks Pooja and pleads her to be Maya in his play and then yells at her for not getting this ghost woman who’s only in his imagination. 
    Pooja still leaves Ajay, her childhood friend and fiancé who is nice to her and isn’t a stalker. Slow claps! 
    © Yash Raj Films
    Moral of the story: Jerks always get the women in movies, at least. Let's not talk about real life!

    Many of us have watched Bigg Boss, and to be honest, it is one of the most entertaining controversial shows. 

    Firstly, it's Salman Khan's popularity, and secondly, the drama that follows inside the house when all the contestants turn into housemates. This then turns into nasty fights and arguments, which people somehow enjoy watching. 
    The ardent followers of Bigg Boss are aware of all the contestants and the conflicts, so far. 
    Right from Pooja Misrra's 'You Don't Tell Me What To Do' to Rakhi Sawant's hilarious stunts, it has become a guilty pleasure for many.

    Bigg Boss OTT's host is Karan Johar, and the fights inside the house have begun already. Last week, we witnessed Akshara fighting with Shamita Shetty. However, the Sunday episode had singer Suyyash Rai call KJo a 'loser'.
    View this post on Instagram
    Contestant, Divya Agarwal could be heard saying 'jokingly' in the video that she would nominate Karan for the elimination even though he is the host. Both of them were then seen arguing, and Karan said that there's a difference between a contestant and the host. As a host of the show, he demanded respect from her. 
    He further added that she should not play games with him as he is not inside the house. He yelled at her again warning her to not take such a tone with him.

    Later, former BB contestant Suyyash Rai spoke in support of Divya and tagged Karan Johar in his story. 

    He wrote, "Dear Karan Johar, come let me burst your bubble. You aren't Salman Khan. Try talking sense."
    © Instagram/Suyyash Rai
    © Instagram/Suyyash Rai
    He further added, "Never knew KJo is such a loser. Dear KJo, you fkin check your tone next time then expect others to speak with you nicely. And you better not point that finger of yours at Divya. Do all this with your Shamita." 

    Then tagging him in a post, he said, "Filmein banao, wahin tak theek hai."
    Previously, Suyyash also had his say on Zeeshan Khan, who had made some controversial comments. 
    Karan had called him out in an episode as Zeeshan made a rather misogynistic comment. Zeeshan said "Ladki ho toh daayre mein raho." However, he later said that his statement was misinterpreted.
    © Instagram/Suyyash Rai
    © Instagram/Suyyash Rai
    Suyyash added on this, "Ive felt so, so bad for Zee in today's episode. Poor chap, he didn't do anything wrong, literally anything !!!! And the way he was treated today. I am sorry but no one has gone there to take s**t from him.  There is a way of tackling the situations, sirf host banna is not the game you gotta do justice to your post."

    The show will be hosted by KJo till it goes live on TV, after which it will go back to its original host, Salman Khan.

    *TikTok trend alert*

    “I hate it when men are like, ‘OMG women never know what they want. No, John. I want flowers. But I don’t wanna tell you that I want flowers. Because then you’re just gonna go and get me flowers. Because I told you I wanted flowers. I want you to want to get me flowers. Do you get it?’”
    Seriously. Do you get it?
    Men often complain that it’s challenging to understand women and we agree. Not only do women function differently in terms of emotions, but we also have far more complex bodies. Especially vaginas. 
    They’re not just designed to take pleasure but also to face an immense amount of pain during periods and of course, childbirth. 
    So here are a few vagina facts that will help men understand a woman’s genitals better. 
    1. Vagina Is Like WineThe normal pH of the vagina is less than 4.5, which is similar to the pH of the wine. Lactobacilli, the “good” bacteria help in maintaining pH levels. If it goes up, the risk of vaginal infections increases.
    We’ll drink to that. Cheers!
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2431__
    2. Vaginas Don’t FartThat sound you hear sometimes is of “queefing”. Those little puffs of air released from the lady parts are trapped air from the vaginal canal. They’re odourless. 
    3. Clitoris Has Thousands Of Nerves

    via GIPHY
    The clitoris is not a part of the vagina. It’s the crux of sexual pleasure for women and the tip of the clitoris alone has a whopping 8,000 nerve endings, which makes it the most sensitive part of a woman’s erogenous zone. 
    4. There Is A Link Between Vaginas & SharksNot a comparison you’ll make in your wildest dream but the lubricant produced by the vagina contains squalene, a compound that’s also found in sharks’ livers. It’s also used in cosmetic products like moisturising lotions, sunscreens and hair products.
    5. G-Spot Is Not A SpotG-spot isn’t really a “spot”, it’s a part of the clitoral network. It’s an area. And the best *** positions to stimulate the G-spot—Cowgirl, doggy style, closed missionary position.
    __ECOMPRODUCT__1344__
    6. G-Spot Vs. A-SpotAlso known as the anterior fornix erogenous zone, the A-spot is believed to be located deep inside the vagina, between the cervix and the bladder.
    In a study, Malaysian researcher Dr Chua Chee Ann reported that 10–15 minutes of A-spot stimulation led to instant orgasms and vaginal lubrication in 15 percent of women.
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2121__
    7. Every Vagina Is DifferentUnlike other organs like the heart, kidney and liver which look very similar, the size and colour of the vagina vary from woman to woman. 
    8. Women Don’t Pee From Their VaginaA woman has a urethra for peeing and a vagina for ***. Both are close to each other but these are two separate organs.
    9. Women Can Get ErectionsResearch has shown that when a woman gets an erection, the clitoris can increase in size by up to 300 per cent. You can feel it but you can’t see it because the average size of a vagina is 3 to 4 inches deep.
    10. Vagina Smell Differently Every woman smells different down there. It also depends on the time of the month, her hormonal cycle, bacteria present and the pH balance. So please don’t expect it to smell like strawberries unless you use a flavoured lubricant.
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2161__
    11. The Smell Depends On What She EatsEverything she consumes potentially affects the smell down there. For example, vegetables, fruits and herbs are known to give a girl’s vagina a more sugary flavour. However, it’s temporary.
    12. Women Pee Immediately After *** For A ReasonThe risk of urinary tract infection (UTI) is pretty high for a woman as her anus is located pretty close to the vagina, which means that the faecal bacteria reside close by. 
    During intercourse, these bacteria come closer to the urethra. Peeing after *** helps in avoiding the spread to the bladder.
    13. Don’t Ask Your Girl To Get Waxed Down ThereIf you’ve been together for a while, get used to seeing her pubic hair. It isn’t easy for everyone to tolerate pouring hot wax on such a sensitive area. Also, pubic hair is there for protection and rest assured, they’re clean.
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2304__
    14. Penetrative *** Alone Isn’t Enough To Get An OrgasmMost women need clitoral stimulation to get an orgasm. The clitoris is more delicate than the ***** so be gentle with it. Start by touching it softly and slowly. Very, very gradually work your way up to more speed and pressure.
    15. Having A Good Time ≠ Moaning Like Women Do In PornWomen don’t always moan when they’re enjoying ***. Remember, porn is a performance, very different from real life.
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2143__
    16. Discharge & Orgasm Are Not The Same Things Women have clear or white discharge coming out of their vagina every day and that’s normal. It’s a way for the vagina to clean itself. 
    But it takes about 20 minutes for a woman to climax. This number differs from person to person. 
    17. Not Every Girl Has A HymenThe hymen is a membrane that covers the vaginal opening. Some women may not have that structure and a lot of girls might have it torn during a workout or any other physical activities even before they have ***. 
    18. Vagina Lubricates ItselfVagina gets its natural lubrication from the inside but external lubrication is needed during intercourse regardless of the girl’s age.
    __ECOMPRODUCT__1769__
    19. Vagina Allows Us To Have Different Types Of OrgasmsMen rely on one particular area for orgasms but women can actually get multiple kinds of orgasms including vaginal, clitoral, blended, squirting, cervical and anal to name a few. Countless possibilities!  
    20. Birth Control Pills Can Be Very Harmful To The VaginaNot only does a birth control pill harm a woman's body, but it also affects a vagina’s ability to secrete lube. Think twice before having unprotected *** next time.

    WWE SummerSlam 2021 ended badly for John Cena, who had returned to the flagship show at last month’s Money in the Bank following his Hollywood break. Having built around a pretty convincing campaign with the Universal Champion Roman Reigns, the two went head to head in for the title at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
    Back to back Superman punches, followed by a spear left Cena unguarded and unable to kick out of a pin-fall and the ‘Big Dog’ once again left the ring with the championship belt in his hand.

    And even though it was by far the best clash of the show, the biggest highlight of the evening came just moments after Reigns pinned Cena and walked away and the broadcast was over. 
    It was the Beast Incarnate, Brock Lesnar, albeit in a top knot, making his return to the WWE ring and using the beat up body of John Cena as a tool to announce his presence. Lesnar casually picked up the former 17-time champion and tossed him aside in an F5 like he was nothing.
    What happened after #SummerSlam went off the air. #JohnCena #BrockLesnar pic.twitter.com/F0SJ1HRX4B
    — Julian Shaw (@JulianRShaw) August 22, 2021
    The entire stadium erupted as fans who were present at the venue began to share the videos recorded through their camera phones on the various social media platforms, including Twitter.
    Cena enjoys a pretty decent fan following in India and therefore it was obvious that there were a lot of broken hearts in the subcontinent after the legendary pro-wreslter’s night ended eating up four finisher moves by two of the most famous WWE superstars at the moment.
    Here’s how Cena’s Indian fans reacted:
    It hurts @JohnCena #JohnCena pic.twitter.com/Q1ORFlsLXz
    — Saroj (@Saroj5064) August 22, 2021Where is my hero old john C nation... Plz don't comeback and don't hurt us.. Champ
    — Dhivakar Vijayakumar (@dvakar7) August 22, 2021Ohhh. He was fine right? John didn't get hurt or injured right??
    — Prarthana Smriti (@PrarthanaSmriti) August 22, 2021@johncena #johncena unfair things happening with #wwe #WWE2K22
    — prithvijit mukherjee (@prithvijit4) August 22, 2021While the WWE managed to bring back their biggest name in Brock Lesnar, the level of attention his return deserved was split by another wrestler making his comeback to the ring after seven years. It was a certain someone named CM Punk.
    At the time of spitting with the WWE on rather ugly terms, Punk had said “I’ll go be best in the world somewhere else” and he chose to do so by joining the All Elite Wrestling and appearing for the first time in his hometown of Chicago in front of millions of his fans for one of the loudest roars the company had ever heard.

    No one likes to sweat but the one place where it is a sign of a job well done is in the gym. That’s right, when you are working out, the amount you sweat makes you feel like you put in the work but the downside of it is the smell that comes with it.
    Body odour is a problem that no one likes, especially if you are working out and the person next to you can smell your sweat. So, how do you solve it?
    Using deodorant is the simplest solution. Before your workout, spray it on and you're good to go. But, how do you find one that does the job and fits your budget? Well, it’s simple, you check out this list and choose one that works for you. 
    We've compiled a list of the best deodorants for guys around Rs 500 that will do the job without draining your bank account.
    1. Ustraa Black Deodorant__ECOMPRODUCT__2427__
    This is a strong choice. It will mask the smell and help keep you smelling great throughout your workout. 
    2. Treewear Natural Deodorant__ECOMPRODUCT__1536__
    If you are trying to live a natural and sustainable lifestyle then a natural deodorant is your best bet. It covers up the smell of sweat, lasts long and does not affect the environment, it’s a win-win!
    3. The Man Company Body Perfume__ECOMPRODUCT__2144__
    You must be thinking, why would I wear perfume to the gym? Well, that’s because body perfume is just as effective as a deodorant. It will mask the smell of sweat and have you smelling great at the same time/
    4. All Good Scents Perfume Mist__ECOMPRODUCT__790__
    This is a product that can be your backup in case you forget to use your regular deodorant. It can be used mid-workout to refresh your senses as well as take away the sweat smell.
    5. Mensome Natural Deodorant__ECOMPRODUCT__1411__
    This is another natural deodorant that is a great alternative to the gas that comes in most cans and makes you smell like the body sprays we used in high school.
    To Wrap UpUsing deodorant is as important as wearing the right shoes to the gym. It is not only for your own benefit but also for those around you. I think we can all agree that neither of us wants our gym to smell like a locker room. So, always store deodorant in your gym bag and any other bag that you regularly use, because you never know when you might need it.

    When it comes to fitness, most of us focus on cardio and strength training the most. Most fitness goals are either about weight loss or weight gain. 

    Even though flexibility is just as important, it’s rarely on our mind. 
    We often believe that flexibility is a natural gift, but that isn’t true. Anyone can become more flexible. All that it takes is some effort and consistency. 
    Why Is Flexibility Important? As a generation, we complain about back aches, bad cramps and poor posture a little too often. The solution to all these problems is simple - flexibility training. 
    A flexible body has a lowered risk of injuries, better posture and balance and experiences less pain, overall. Stretching exercises, yoga and pilates are some forms of workouts that improve flexibility. They help in relaxing muscles and can also help in enhancing your mood. 
    How To Be More Flexible All of these major benefits of flexibility make it an essential part of everyone’s workout. As we age, our lifestyles change and being flexible may help you combat those changes with ease. Here are some ways through which you can improve your flexibility: 
    1. Easy 10 Minute Stretches It goes without saying that stretching before and after your workout is important. However, doing some easy desk stretches can help you even more, especially if you have a 9-5 job. Take some quick breaks to do some simple back stretches and your body will slowly start opening up. 
    __ECOMPRODUCT__1199__
    2. Doing More Yoga/Pilates These forms of exercises combine stretching with some strength training and are great for loosening up stiff muscles. If you work out 5-7 times a week, start reserving a couple of days for yoga, pilates or any other workout that focuses more on stretching. 
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2076__
    If you don’t have much time on your hands, you can always do some surya namaskars. They help in opening up almost all of your muscles, especially when done at a slow pace. 
    3. Go Slow & Steady  Instead of doing difficult stretches and experiencing unnecessary pain, start by perfecting the simple stretches. Consistency is the key here, so focus more on being regular and take one step at a time. 
    __ECOMPRODUCT__1814__
    4. Warm Up Your Muscles Another tip that will make painful stretches a tad bit easier is to warm up beforehand. When your muscles are warm, post some light exercises, you can stretch them further and more comfortably. 
    __ECOMPRODUCT__1846__
    5. Massage Out The Pain It’s ironic how stretching can prevent muscle pain but can also cause it. This is especially true for people who are beginners at flexibility training.
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2425__
    Initially, you might experience some pain and muscle soreness and massaging can help you get rid of it. You can use some massage oil and massaging tools to relax your muscles.
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2426__
    6. Breathe Through Your Stretches Breathing the right way is extremely important. It helps in improving your stretches and going to your maximum capacity. As a general rule, you need to breathe in while prepping and breathe out while stretching, however this may change from one exercise to another.
    __ECOMPRODUCT__1819__
    7. Take Additional Help Initially, it might be difficult to do even the simplest of stretches, for example, bending forward to touch your toes. In such cases, you can take some additional help, like yoga belts, to do your exercises. These belts can also be used to intensify your stretches when you reach the advanced levels.
    __ECOMPRODUCT__1833__
    The Bottomline If you want to get rid of your slouchy posture, back pain and easy injuries, flexibility training is a must for you. Modern day lifestyles, especially during a pandemic, make it even more crucial for you to take out time for your health. 
    Do you like flexibility training or do you think its too excruciating? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

    Over the last couple of years, there have been plenty of dramas on the most worshipped Sufi saint of India, Sai Baba. Television shows have been loved, avidly followed, and cherished by his disciples.
    But now, the story of Sai Baba is making its way in a biographical format onto the digital screens.
    The MX Original Series Sabka Sai gives the audience a peek into the enriching life of the great Sufi saint. Starring Raj Arjun in the titular role, the 10 episode mythology series is directed by Ajit Bhairavkar. 


    But here’s the thing, even though it’s a story (anecdotes) that we’ve all heard before, Sabka Sai is not your regular run-of-the-mill television drama. Here’s why:

    Historical NarrativeAs the biographical drama, Sabka Sai attempts to chronicle the life of the most revered saint, it talks about his journey as an adopted infant, his teenage identity struggles in establishing himself as the ‘Saint from Shirdi’. This journey is beautifully narrated with layers of historical events like the Indian freedom struggle or epidemics like the Plague. 
    The Show Humanizes Sai Baba Talking about the trailer of the series, the Shirdi-born director Ajit Bhairavkar says, “In this series, we have tried to portray Sai Baba as more human as compared to the God he is now worshipped as, along with the real-life challenges he faced. His progressive thoughts, his compassion for all mankind, and his lesser-known stories are what we’ve tried to bring alive in this narrative. The show also tries to decode the phenomenon of his huge following from people of all faiths."
    MX Player
    Liberal Beliefs, Anecdotes, And Miracles One look at the trailer and you’ll realise the impressive attempt to cover the wide range of Sai Baba’s thoughts and beliefs. The show covers anecdotes that range from his views on religion uniting people, to the hostility he faced from those who believe in science and medicine over his miracles as well as his support for India's freedom fighters. His liberal beliefs in widow remarriage and acceptance of inter-religious marriages saw resistance and his ahead of the times thoughts were often received with dissent.
    ‘Faith And Patience’ – The Core Philosophy  Narrated through the lives of vivid characters and their struggles, Sabka Sai projects the core spiritual philosophy of Sai which is anchored in ‘Faith and Patience’ (Shraddha aur Saburi) and intends to bring the collective consciousness of humanity to believe that ‘All paths lead to one truth’ popularized by the phrase given by Sai - ‘Sabka Malik Ek’. 
    MX Player
    Sabka Sai has a talented ensemble cast that includes actors Gulki Joshi, Mohammad Samad, Aakash Sinha, Manoj Kolhatkar, Rohit Phalke, AsheeshKapur, Devika Daftadar, and others in pivotal roles. 
    All episodes of this Sabka Sai will start streaming for FREE on MX Player from 26th August.
    The show is also dubbed in Tamil and Telugu to reach a wider audience. To binge-watch this series ad-free, upgrade and subscribe to MX Gold (MX Player’s subscription VOD service) for less than Rs.1/- day right away!

    Dysregulated sleep patterns are a modern day curse, all thanks to mobile phones and all that it contains. 

    As much as we hate restless nights and drowsy days, changing this habit is not easy. 
    The most common advice for fixing your sleep routine is to switch off your phone and keep it away. But does that really work? 
    If you’re a night owl, you know the problem isn’t the phone, it's your mind. You feel most awake, energetic and creative during the night hours and there’s nothing that can change that. 
    What if we told you otherwise? Yes, you can change the way your mind functions and the first step of that journey is changing your diet. 
    Sleep & Nutrition: How Are They Connected? According to experts, certain nutrients like vitamin D, melatonin, magnesium and omega-3 can help in improving your sleep quality and patterns. Your diet is also directly connected to your mental health, which also affects your sleep. 
    Worst Foods For Your Sleep Pattern In terms of the adverse effects of certain nutrients and food, processed meat, refined grains, foods that contain higher amounts of caffeine, can be the reason behind an active mind, even at night. Let’s go through these foods in detail and how they affect your sleep patterns: 
    1. Foods With Caffeine When we think of caffeine, we think of coffee. However, there are many other foods and beverages that have caffeine too. Dark chocolate, green tea and even normal tea can have caffeine in it. So make sure to choose your bedtime beverage mindfully and don’t forget to read the label. 
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2334__
    2. Sugary Treats Foods that have too much refined sugar can make your body very active at night. More sugar in your bloodstream stimulates insulin production in your body. This can keep you wide awake at night since your body is wide awake too. 
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2423__
    This means no ice creams, chocolates and sweets at night. 
    3. Acidic Foods Acidic foods like grapefruit and oranges are a big no at night. This is because they increase your risk of getting heartburn and acid reflux at night. This can be a major discomfort, especially when you’re trying to relax and sleep. Sometimes, it can even wake you up from your peaceful slumber in the middle of the night. 
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2424__
    4. CheeseNow this one may be a little hard to digest for all the cheese lovers, but you’ve got to stay away from pizzas at night. Aged cheese contains an amino acid that stimulates the production of norepinephrine, a neurotransmitter released during stressful situations. It goes without saying that your body shouldn’t be experiencing stress before bed.

    __ECOMPRODUCT__2413__
     5. Alcohol Most types of alcohol are stimulants and consuming it at night can keep you up for hours. Even when you do drink and pass out, the chances are that you’ll either experience restless sleep or wake up earlier than usual. 
    __ECOMPRODUCT__1208__
    Alcohol can prevent you from entering REM, which is an important stage of sleep that determines your overall sleep quality. 
    Final ThoughtsWe try a lot of different techniques for better sleep at night but exercising and eating right is often forgotten. After all, sleep is part of your overall health and what you eat will directly impact it. 
    Avoid these food items, eat healthy and you’re sure to experience a better quality of sleep.

    For fans who have been anxiously waiting for updates about Salman Khan’s upcoming movie Tiger 3, there's something to look forward to as his look from the film has found its way to the Internet. A fan captured Salman shooting for a chase sequence on the streets in Russia. A lot of pictures have now been leaked.
    He looks completely unrecognizable in these pictures where he is seen sporting a red jacket, white tee, and ripped jeans. What caught our attention the most was the beard and brown hair.
    Here are the pictures that have gone viral:
    View this post on Instagram

    As the look has now gone viral, we think the makers have taken inspiration from these three Hollywood characters:
    1. Rubeus Hagrid
    View this post on Instagram

    Rubeus Hagrid is the man we cannot imagine the Harry Potter series without. If you see Salman’s new look closely, you would realize that the makers have taken some inspiration from Robbie Coltrane’s character Rubeus Hagrid. Salman's beard and hair bears stark resemblance to that of Hagrid.
    2. Tormund Giantsbane
    View this post on Instagram
    If you remember Tormund Giantsbane's look in Game Of Thrones, you would surely be convinced that the makers have taken some notes from this character for Salman Khan’s look in Tiger 3.
    3. Aquaman

    View this post on InstagramAquaman star Jason Momoa impressed many as he carried off his long hair and bearded look perfectly. We think the makers of Tiger 3 might have had him in mind while creating Salman’s look.
    Salman Khan reprises his role as RAW agent Tiger in Tiger 3. Katrina Kaif will be seen in her role as ISI agent Zoya. The film will also star Emraan Hashmi in the negative role of an ISI agent.
    The movie will capture Salman and Katrina performing some high-octane action sequences.

    Vaani Kapoor recently opened up about her next film Shamshera and her co-star, Ranbir Kapoor. The actress also said that Shamshera reminded her of the popular Sanjay Dutt film Khalnayak and that Ranbir Kapoor would surprise everyone with this film. 

    Vaani told PTI, “We have grown up watching films like Khalanayak and a few others. It (Shamshera) gave me a sense of that. It is a cool film and it is so different. I love Karan Malhotra's Agneepath. He knows how much to push each emotion. To be part of a film which is like that and coming from a filmmaker like Karan was the icing on the cake.”

    She said, "The way Karan has mounted her is different. There is a lot of substance and charisma in her. It is a dream character.”

    When asked about whether Vaani faced a financial crunch in her early days, she said, "For sure. I have been supporting myself, I haven't taken a penny from my parents from the age of 18-19 and I have been supporting myself, I was modeling, making my own money. This was also very new territory for me, I was very clueless, I was very under-confident, I didn't know what I was doing, I didn't know how to go about it. But there is a certain vision one has for themselves, I had that vision and I stuck by my beliefs."

    This pandemic has not only tested our physical health, but also our mental health. From having to work from home to not socialising enough, the transition wasn’t pretty for any of us. 

    Most of us have rough ideas about what a therapy or counselling session may look like. 
    But how accurate can this perception be, especially when we have to rely on movies and TV shows for it? 
    As someone who has been to plenty of therapy sessions, I think I can vouch for the fact that a lot of these representations are inaccurate. 
    Here’s what actually happens: 
    1. Sessions Don’t Take Place In Public Settings  © Red Chillies Entertainment
    Remember the iconic ‘samundar se kabaddi’ scene from Dear Zindagi? While the movie got a lot of the things right, this particular scene can be misleading. Yes, some therapists can suggest taking sessions outside the office, but it’s a rare occurrence. More so, doing an activity together is even more rare.

    2. The Office Is Warm & Welcoming  © Amazon Prime Video
    The therapy scenes from The Family Man 2 showcase a setting that’s more like a doctor’s office and less like a therapist’s. The way the clients are sitting across from the doctor is very professional and opening up in a setting like that will be very uncomfortable.
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2421__
    Most psychologists will have a warm and homely environment in their office. Some shows and movies that get the setting right are 13 Reasons Why, Never Have I Ever and Dear Zindagi. The clients are seen sitting comfortably on a sofa, not stiffly on an office chair. 
    3. You May Not Always Smile After A Session © Red Chillies Entertainment
    Dear Zindagi romanticised the idea of mental health in some ways. For instance, Alia Bhatt’s character walked out feeling happy and content after every session. In real life, that may not always happen. 

    Sometimes you’re confused, other times you’re sad. Sometimes you are frustrated and other times you may even have some homework to do.
    __ECOMPRODUCT__1538__
    Movie scenes may set an unrealistic standard for what to expect. Just because you don’t feel happy after a session, doesn’t mean that therapy isn’t working. It simply means that you had different expectations, all thanks to movies and shows. 
    4. Limited Time Sessions  © Amazon Prime Video
    Most depictions show therapy sessions as an hour long affair. While that is mostly the case, the timings are flexible. If you want a session that’s longer than an hour, you can consult your therapist or counsellor. 

    __ECOMPRODUCT__2422__
    Some may be open to sessions that are 2 hrs long, while some others stop at 1.5 hrs. The truth is that it completely depends on the psychologist and your own preference. 
    5. Being Pressured Into Talking About Things © Red Chillies Entertainment
    In reference to The Family Man 2, it was obvious that Manoj Bajpayee’s character wasn’t open to therapy and clearly was uncomfortable diving into some private topics. This may have been a funny scene, but was far from being accurate. 

    __ECOMPRODUCT__2419__
    The first session is mostly about trust building and most therapists will not pressure you into opening up right away. If you are uncomfortable, they will probably help you be more comfortable, and not keep drilling you with the same questions.
    The Bottomline Even though we are grateful that mental health is being depicted in mainstream media, we still have a long way to go. We barely have a few movies and shows that are showing mental health in a realistic light.
    However, these depictions aren’t always accurate. Let’s not forget how important a storyline is and sometimes, the accuracy is compromised to make the scene funny or more entertaining. 
    In conclusion, ask around and talk to real professionals to get an idea of what mental health truly is, especially if you’re considering seeking professional help.

    Whenever we drop our smartphone, our heart skips a beat hoping that we didn’t damage the phone or the screen. We’ve all probably experienced dropping a phone and cracking the screen or scratching up the body of the phone when dropped from waist level or higher.

    However, one pilot dropped his iPhone X from 11,00 feet from a moving airplane and recovered it. The shocking part of this story is that the iPhone X was recovered undamaged — not even a single scratch was found on the phone. 

    First spotted by WCCFTECH, the story comes from a forum post of a pilot from Diamond Aviators. The user ‘dmloftus’ claims that on August 8, 2021, he was flying his Diamond DA40 plane. The plane has small side windows which can be opened at a certain height when flying. The open window is usually used by tourists and passengers to take clearer pictures. The pilot says he has taken hundreds of pictures with his iPhone from the same window. However, in this one instance, his phone was sucked out of the window.

    “As I opened the window and pointed the iPhone camera at the cloud, I hit a small pocket of turbulence and my right hand moved too close to the open passenger window. In a millisecond, the iPhone was sucked right out through the window and it was gone! At first I was upset about the loss, but after a few minutes I began chuckling to myself as it was a 4 year old iPhone X and I probably needed to upgrade to a 5G phone anyway. I landed in Atlanta at 10pm EDT after a long day of flying,” he said in the forum post. 

    After landing, he used his spare iPhone 6s to disable the iPhone X remotely, however he found that the phone was still active on the Find My app. He could locate his phone on the map and recovered the fallen iPhone X. To his surprise, he found that the iPhone X was still in the same condition before it got sucked out and was in perfect working condition. Even the battery wasn’t damaged which some might find to be a miracle.

    “I felt sure the phone must have been destroyed in the fall, but I did not want to take any chances with financial data, etc that was on the phone. Jack suggested we open the settings menu and remove the iPhone X from the account. As we did this, we clicked on the Find My iPhone link. To my astonishment, the 6S showed a map location for the iPhone X near Blythe Arkansas, with the last transmission at 9:39 pm CDT Sunday evening. We took some screenshots and I clicked on the map link. I was amazed that the phone could somehow survive a fall of over 11.000 feet, and thought how lucky it was to fall in an area that actually had cell coverage when in much of rural America it's difficult to get a signal. I mentioned to Jack that I might just fly back to Arkansas to see if I could find the phone.”

    It’s worth pointing out that the iPhone X was protected by an Otterbox Defender Series Case, which definitely helped in protecting the phone from getting damaged. Otterbox is known for making highly durable accessories and protective cases for smartphones. While Otterbox cases are known for protecting smartphones from normal falls, nobody expected it to protect a phone that fell from 11,000 feet.

    Scarlett Johansson has always been fairly opinionated and never holds back from a fight, mainly when the matters revolve around patriarchy or misogynistic behaviour. 
    When the actress finally got her eponymous standalone movie, Black Widow, she recalled her character being 'sexualised' and said she was 'treated like a possession'.

    In recent news, though, the actress again decided not to hold back, and this time, it's Disney that she is trying to sue. 

    Her lawyer has accused Disney of 'misogynistic attacks' and misconduct. Last month, the news of Johansson going for legal proceedings came forward. 
    The Black widow actress said that Disney Plus and the cinemas violated the contract. The filing also noted that her compensation was 'largely based' on the performance of the movie. However, it was lower than expected. 
    Both are currently in a legal feud, and the hybrid release of Black widow ended up robbing Johansson's bonus of $50 million.

    Scarlett's lawyer, John Berlinski, said, "After initially responding to this litigation with a misogynistic attack against Scarlett Johansson, Disney is now, predictably, trying to hide its misconduct in a confidential arbitration."

    He also added, "Marvel's promises to give Black Widow a typical theatrical release 'like its other films' had everything to do with guaranteeing that Disney wouldn't cannibalise box office receipts in order to boost Disney+ subscriptions".

    Johansson's lawyer also added that they have overwhelming evidence to prove it.

    After all this, Disney has said that these claims are not valid in a filing made on August 20th. They told the hybrid release was discussed, and Scarlett was aware of it. "Marvel discussed the hybrid-release-pattern decision with Johansson in spring 2021, as the parties were conferring regarding the Picture's release date. Marvel has assured Johansson that she will be credited with 100% of the Premier Access and PEHV receipts for purposes of the box-office thresholds used to calculate any additional compensation – even though Marvel has no obligation under the agreement to do so."

    Disney was also criticised for closing Johansson's fee at $20m. Her agent called this 'an attempt to weaponise her success as an artist and businesswoman.'
    The long-overdue movie was supposed to get its release in May 2020. However, it got delayed by a year, and it also became the lowest-grossing Marvel Cinematic movie.

    Johansson also added that the agreement explicitly mentions that the film would get a theatrical release, and her salary would be as per the performance at the box office. The lawsuit that accuses Disney said, "Disney intentionally induced Marvel's breach of the agreement, without justification, in order to prevent Ms. Johansson from realising the full benefit of her bargain with Marvel."

    In a statement, quoted by Variety, it said, "there is no merit whatsoever to this filing. The lawsuit is especially sad and distressing in its callous disregard for the horrific and prolonged global effects of the COVID-19 pandemic."

    Naturally, people on Twitter, especially, Marvel fans were quick to react to the turbulent developments: 
    I've never thought that was a matter of mysoginia, but a matter of dishonesty on Disney's side. They were trying not to pay an amount of money they had to pay under legal agreement. Today people have to shoehorn ***/gender/race matters into everything, this case is simply not.

    One of the most anticipated films for this year, has been the Kannada film, KGF: Chapter 2, starring Yash, Sanjay Dutt  & Raveena Tandon. As per a poster put out by the film’s leading actor, Yash, the movie has been delayed yet again.

    For people who have just started to watch South Indian films, KGF: Chapter 1 was one of the biggest hits the Kannada film industry has ever seen, garnering a box office collection of over Rs 250 Crores.

    The film, did incredibly well in the Hindi speaking parts of India as well. After its release on Prime Video, the film got another lease on life and just exploded. Trade analysts all over the country believe that had the pandemic not happened, and had the film released as per its original schedule, it would have been at par with the box office collection of Baahubali. 

    © Hombale Films
    In short, this has been slated to be one of the biggest blockbusters Indian cinema has seen in recent years.

    Given that the Hindi films are in a precarious position as of now, the makers of KGF: Chapter 2 have decided to postpone the film’s release into 2022, the 14th of April to be exact. Earlier it was slated to be released in September this year.

    Trade analysts believe that the reason why Dharma Production & Hombale Films have pushed the launch into next year has a lot to do with the kind of response that Akshay Kumar’s Bell Bottom has received, financially.

    By and large. people who have seen Bell Bottom have sung praises for the film, and have said that this is a quintessentially Akshay Kumar film, which follows a formula that is all but guaranteed to work at the box office.

    However, the box office collections tell a different story. While a film like Baby had an opening day collection of 9.3 Crores, Bell Bottom managed just Rs 2.75 Crores.

    Given that Bell Bottom was supposed to be the film that revived the multiplex going experience for audiences, filmmakers are approaching their releases with extreme caution, especially films from down south that are set for a pan India release. One also has to consider that several states have prohibited theatres and multiplexes from opening.

    These include films like Ram Charan & Jr NTR’s RRR, Allu Arjun’s Pushpa, two highly anticipated films. RRR was supposed to be released this Dusshera, whereas Pushpa was supposed to have a Christmas release. In all likelihood, they too will be postponed to 2022.
